This Week @ CLC - May 14, 2010
‘Is prayer your steering wheel or your spare tyre?’ Corrie Ten Boom
Chile – Isaac Zuniga, CLC Chile, writes to say that: “The Lord has been very good to us through the ‘practical love’ of the CLC family. Gifts have been used to repair damage to CLC staff accommodation. Support has also gone to a number of Christian bookshops, pastors, and towards food and literature distribution in areas of Concepcion and Talca that have been most affected by the recent earthquake. Our sales in the last few weeks have been amazing; we see that people want to come closer to God.” Praise the Lord!
We have also heard from Eduardo Moreno. He says that the publisher Unilit is printing 10,000 copies of a special edition of the book When God Doesn’t Make Sense by Dr. James Dobson to send as a gift to Chile. The printers Buena Semilla, in Colombia, are also participating in this project and CLC Chile only need to cover the shipping and importation costs.
Added to this are a number of other projects to reach the people of Chile with the comfort and hope of the Gospel message: CLC Chile are distributing 5,000 copies of More than a Carpenter and 5,000 of La Promesa, an edition of the Gospel of John; The Clase Biblica Radial (RBC Ministries), Bible courses on the radio and on line, are sending thousands of booklets from their ‘Discovery’ series, having chosen 5 different themes that would be appropriate to the situation; and Tyndale have donated hundreds of copies of Where was God? by Edwin Lutzer to be sold as support for the work of CLC Chile.
Finally, there are plans for the author and psychologist Dr. Adrian Intreri, whose books are for young people and parents, to visit schools and other locations that God opens up to us, to speak to people in areas most affected by the disaster. This will probably take place in August. Please pray that all these generous offers and plans will be used of God to bring hope, healing and salvation to many people in Chile.
